In Bed All Day Again

actually no. i don't have to work tomorrow and i usually stay up till at least 4 a.m. and it's only 11 after right now. i work 3 p.m. till 11:30 p.m. and hang out till 4 or whenever i get sleepy. 

You obviously work very hard, Mary, and are strict with your hours. Your job sounds important to you, too.

Once you get into a work routine, then life becomes a lot easier. That is when I tend to start looking at what I am doing, and see if I could get a little more efficient. I even do that in my day to day routines lol. Yesterday, I decided I could distribute my vitamins in a more efficient manner. I can't help it, it's just what I do.

I know you know this already, but your husband is more important than a routine: I don't mean that in a patronizing way at all.

I really do hope John gets much better: and soon. But time goes on and the body does heal itself in time.

You are a new woman. 

I find disposable gloves help protect your nails, while leaving plenty of feeling.

I always use disposable gloves for cleaning, kjay: you don't want nasty chemicals on your hands. But do make sure to keep your kitchen gloves separate from your bathroom gloves. OK, totally obvious, but you don't want to spread any bacteria into the kitchen.

Do also respect chemicals you're using:

1. Vent the room when cleaning, basically.
2. You can do this by opening a window and running a fan.
3. And don't use too much product when cleaning: a smallish amount should suffice.
4. Finally: don't be scared of chemicals. If you're using them correctly, you have nothing to worry about.

I do hope my tips help.

Unfortunately, I spent all day in bed today. I just lay there, dead to the world.

I guess my body just needed to catch up. But I will try to get up much earlier tomorrow.

On the bright side: I got to sleep.

Hello jen.

I do like my sleep: a great deal. But sleep is for the night-time: not the daytime. That is my rule: asleep at night, awake in the day. I always look forward to falling asleep: I feel so restful and at peace. Plus, when I wake up in the morning I feel refreshed and much better.

I certainly - however - could not get out of bed at 6am. People who get out of bed at that time are insane. No: 8am and mostly never earlier.

Cassie, 6 am, you get to sleep late lol. I'm usually up by 4:30 am.

I got up early today: and I am exhausted and need a nap. I had things I wanted to do, however: so am glad I got those things done.

I'll still have a nap shortly, though.

In what way?   

It is so peaceful.  The birds are singing, the deer are coming out to feed. The sky is alive with golden and red colors. The air is cool and the dew is on the grass. 

Oh dear, you are both 'morning types'. *
